DIY Dry Shampoo

Ingredients you’ll need to make this DIY Dry Shampoo Recipe:
For light hair:
* Corn Starch
* Baking Soda
* Essential Oil (optional, provides scent)
* Empty Salt Shaker
For dark hair:
* Cocoa Powder
* Corn Starch
* Essential Oil (optional, provides scent)
* Empty Salt Shaker
To make dry shampoo for light hair:
Combine 1/2 cup of corn starch with 2 table spoons of baking soda. It’s true that you could just use corn starch on its own, but baking powder absorbs the scent of the corn starch. If you aren’t concerned with the scent of corn starch, you can omit the use of the baking powder. Add a few drops of essential oil of your choice. I used peppermint because it’s my favorite, and I wanted to smell fresh. I love it.
To make dry shampoo for dark hair:
Combine 1/2 cup of cocoa powder with 2 tablespoons of corn starch. Just as with the last one, you can add essential oil if desired. But this one has a great chocolate-y scent when left alone. I love it!
To use the wonderful dry shampoo you’ve just made, you only have to sprinkle some onto the root of your hair, where you want to freshen it up. After about a day or two, my hair starts to look a little limp as it gets more and more oily. I use dry shampoo in between washes to keep the volume in my hair that I love to see.
Sprinkle it in the desired area, and use the same motions you use when actually shampooing for best results. When used correctly, dry shampoo absorbs oil and gives volume. Give it a try!
